My first RTD Protein shake



Recommended Posts

Ok, so I decided to start testing out RTD Protein shakes.. And yes, I cheated by buying one with more sugar than I thought I should have but it was still HORRIBLE! It has the consistency of pepto bismol and milk of magnesia..

OMG, I just dont know.. I will probably have to add something in them to thin it out.

BTW, it was Bolthouse Farms - Mango Protein Plus..

People rave about Bolthouse Farms smoothies but I don't like them at all! I.tried the mango and also the vanilla chai Protein One and YUCK. What I have done is take the green one and mix it with my vanilla Protein Powder and that was tasty.

My friend uses the vanilla chai one with Cereal in the morning.. I tried a spoonful and it didnt taste too bad.

I will try the green one and some vanilla Protein powder.. That sounds interesting. I also bought the chocolate one (it was BOGO at Krogers) and haven't tried it yet.

I hate to be wasteful so I will mix it with a few things to see if I can salvage the rest of the bottle.

My favorite RTD is GNC's Total Lean Meal Replacement. It's got 25g of Protein and only 6 carbs (2g sugar). I'm not a Breakfast person, so I always drink my breakfast. I literally have an entire cabinet full of protein powders and drinks that I couldn't stomach after surgery. So much wasted money :(

Yes, thats why I am sticking to RTD for now. I didn't want to buy something that will be useless after the surgery. I don't think I can lose with vanilla Protein powder though.

I've seen countless recipes with it so I may just buy a smaller tub.

Boy, I wish I could go shopping in your cabinet!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
